Failure
A short poem about one coming to multiple realisations.

I can’t believe I let him gaslight me
In ways I could never imagine.
I hope he truly didn’t believe
The words that left his
Lips tainted with lies
And rumors,
Deluding my mind.
You let me get comfortable,
Then shamed me for
Being myself and almost succeeded.
But you didn’t.
Thanks to Her,
My eyes have opened.
I see the world
Clear of my tears.
Tears won’t make us
Friends again.
Tears can’t fix our problems.
Tears don't fix him.
Out of my head,
I see the false truth
He tried to make me believe.
Good try.
Into the person he
wanted me to be.
He failed.
